Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this case report is to describe the chiropractic management of a patient with atypical migraine headache.

CLINICAL FEATURES: A 23-year-old woman experienced migraines for 3 months. She had no previous history of migraines and was unresponsive to pharmaceutical and musculoskeletal therapies. The migraine headaches could not be classified according to the common categories associated with migraines. She had a change in diet due to severe gastroesophageal reflux causing her to reduce or avoid consuming foods. She also had a history of smoking and alcohol consumption.

INTERVENTION AND OUTCOME: Dietary and lifestyle changes were recommended in conjunction with the administration of a multivitamin, magnesium oxide, and Ulmus rubra. Her migraine headaches improved with the resolution of her gastroesophageal reflux symptoms.

CONCLUSION: This patient with atypical migraines and a history of poor dietary and lifestyle choices improved using nutritional changes and supplementing with a multivitamin and magnesium oxide.

Keywords: Diet; Dietary supplements; Gastroesophageal reflux; Migraine disorders
